הַבְּגָדִים מִטַּמְּאִים בִּשְׁנֵי שָׁבוּעוֹת וּבִשְׁלשָׁה סִימָנִין, בִּירַקְרַק וּבַאֲדַמְדַּם וּבְפִשְׂיוֹן. בִּירַקְרַק וּבַאֲדַמְדַּם, בַּתְּחִלָּה, בְּסוֹף שָׁבוּעַ רִאשׁוֹן, וּבְסוֹף שָׁבוּעַ שֵׁנִי, לְאַחַר הַפְּטוּר. וּבְפִשְׂיוֹן, בְּסוֹף שָׁבוּעַ רִאשׁוֹן, בְּסוֹף שָׁבוּעַ שֵׁנִי, לְאַחַר הַפְּטוּר. וּמִטַּמְּאִין בִּשְׁנֵי שָׁבוּעוֹת, שֶׁהֵן שְׁלֹשָׁה עָשָׂר יוֹם:
La ropa [que tiene Negaim ] se vuelve impura después de dos semanas o a través de tres signos: verde intenso, rojo intenso o expansión. Con respecto al verde intenso y al rojo intenso, [se hacen impuros] inicialmente, al final de la primera semana, al final de la segunda semana, [o] después de la exención. Con respecto a la expansión, al final de la primera semana, al final de la segunda semana, [o] después de la exención. Y se vuelven impuros después de dos semanas, que son [en realidad] trece días.
Sefer HaChinukh
From the laws of the commandment is that which they, may their memory be blessed, said (Sifra, Tazria, Parashat Nega'im, Chapter 13:1) that only clothes of wool and flax alone become impure with aliments; and the measure of their impurity is a split bean, like the measure in a person. And there are three signs of impurity with them (Mishnah Negaim 3:7): deep green; deep red; and spreading - the understanding of deep green is green among the greens, like the wing of a peacock; and of deep red is red among the reds, like crimson fabric. And the laws of spreading (Mishnah Negaim 11:7); the law of green that spread red or red that spread green; the law that all [cloths] are fitting to become impure - as they, may their memory be blessed, said (Mishnah Negaim 11:11) that it becomes impure with ailments, even though it does not become impure as the base (midras) of a zav - like sails of a ship, a partition, the decorative piece of a hairnet, scribes' hankerchiefs, a belt, the laces of a shoe or of a sandal that has the width of a split bean, and similar to them, and there is no need to say other [cloths] like bedspreads and pillows; and the rest of its details are elucidated in [the Order] of Tahorot, and most of them are in Tracate Negaim (see Mishneh Torah, Laws of Defilement by Leprosy 12).
